Recorded at its namesake the Saint Cecilia Hotel in the midst of the band's two headline sets at this year's Austin City Limits festival, Foo Fighters' five-song Saint Cecilia EP is both a scrapbook of nearly forgotten moments in the band's 20-year odyssey and a heartfelt thank you to the legions of FF faithful who have made that journey possible.

A sign of gratitude to the group's fans, dedicated to the victims of the terrorist attacks in Paris. Foo Fighters is also teaming with The Sweet Stuff Foundation to help the Paris terror victims and the families of fallen Eagles Of Death Metal tour member Nick Alexander.

"To all who were affected by the atrocities in Paris, loved ones and friends, our hearts go out to you and your families. We will return and celebrate life and love with you once again someday with our music. As it should be done." — Dave Grohl

Returning to the city where the Sonic Highways' album and HBO docuseries concept was born, Foo Fighters instantly transformed the intimate, secluded retreat into a makeshift studio: Within a day, the office became a control room, the bar was littered with mics and cable, the kitchen packed with amps and the fireplace obstructed by a drum kit. Decades of music no one outside the band had heard, fragments and long forgotten riffs from every album — closing cut "The Neverending Sigh" is 20 years old! — were exhumed or pieced together for the first time, all without the usual pressures and expectations that come with making an "album." Dave Grohl, Taylor Hawkins, Nate Mendel, Chris Shiflett, Pat Smear, Rami Jaffee — and old friend Ben Kweller, who happened by one night and ended up adding backing vocals to the title track — sound as happy and relaxed as only a musical family reunion can.
